Members and friends of the Tampa Bay Association of Black Journalists:
Our next meeting is scheduled for 11 a.m. Feb. 7, in the Times building in St. Petersburg, 490 1st Ave. South, St. Petersburg.
We had a very productive executive board meeting last month, where we set a tentative schedule of events for the coming year, including a public forum in may, a poetry slam in July and a multimedia seminar next month.
Now we need to make them happen. Please feel free to come to our meetings whether you are a member, a lapsed member, or just an interested person. Our membership meetings are open to all.
Anyone who is interested in being part of the multimedia presentation, please contact me at this email address or using the information in my signature below.
Our goal is to make meetings more predictable by holding them on the first Saturday of each month at 11 a.m., scheduling them a month or two in advance so you and we can plan for them better.
IMPORTANT NOTE: You don't have to be a member or a person of color to attend our meetings -- if you're interested in networking with journalists of color or getting involved with our activities, we want you in the house. It doesn't matter how long it's been since you were last at a meeting, whether or not you are a member, or whether you're even a journalist.
If you'd like to help make area media more accurate and diverse, we'd love to have you at our meetings.
Hope to see you Saturday or soon....and feel free to check out http://www.tbabj.com/ for updates!
